Fuzzball

Run AI on infrastructure you control.

Fuzzball orchestrates HPC and AI on top of the schedulers, storage, and clusters your team already runs. When a job needs more capacity, the same workflow moves to any major cloud without modification.

Fuzzball

One platform for every team

For research computing and national labs

Your schedulers, storage, and workflows stay exactly as they are. Fuzzball sits above them and gives every researcher a browser-based way to submit, monitor, and reproduce jobs, so high-performance computing is no longer limited to the people who know the command line.

For AI and ML teams

Train models and serve them as production-grade inference endpoints, all in your own environment. Your data never leaves it, your costs stay predictable, and your team ships without standing up custom infrastructure first.

FEATURES

Built for the work. Not the setup.

Engineers, researchers, data scientists, and AI teams move from problem to result without touching infrastructure. Administrators control every environment from one place.

Connect to existing storage

Lustre, GPFS, BeeGFS, or any parallel file system. No migration required.

Move data automatically

Pipelines arrive fully provisioned wherever the job runs.

Eliminate external dependencies

A built-in object cache and container registry replace the separate services you would otherwise stand up.

Empower every researcher

A browser interface handles job submission, monitoring, and results. No command line, no infrastructure expertise.

Maximize GPU utilization

Automatic allocation across training and inference keeps GPUs working instead of sitting idle.

Deploy models in one workflow

When training finishes, the inference endpoint provisions itself. No manual handoff.

Keep your schedulers

PBS and Slurm stay in place. Fuzzball schedules containerized, portable workflows through your existing queues.

Run anywhere, unmodified

One workflow definition runs across every cloud and on-premises environment. No rewrites.

CUSTOMER STORY

FYR Diagnostics: 100x the throughput for production-scale genomics

FYR's EV-Omics platform processes complex multi-omics data to identify precision medicine targets. With Fuzzball, their team runs reproducible analytical pipelines at production scale, cutting cycle times from days to hours.

FEDERATE

Run every workload where it performs best

Fuzzball evaluates every available environment and places each job where it runs best, weighing cost, performance, and data locality. Develop in the cloud, run production on-premises, and burst to cloud on demand.

Route jobs intelligently

Each job lands in the environment that fits its cost, performance, and data-locality needs.

Enforce data sovereignty

Placement policies control where regulated workloads run, so models and data stay on infrastructure you control.

Run one definition everywhere

The same workflow runs on every cluster, cloud, and region you operate, without modification.
FUZZBALL IN ACTION

Build and deploy your workflows with ease

Fuzzball's web UI is designed for usability and standardization. Anyone can build, manage, and reuse workflows with just a few clicks:

01

Create a new workflow

Import from a YAML file, copy a previous workflow, or start from scratch with a built-in template.

Create a new workflow
02

Define your jobs

Parameterize and customize every step of your workflow to match the needs of your jobs.

Define your jobs
03

Customize your environment

Specify infrastructure requirements, from instance sizing to storage volumes, ensuring your workflow runs efficiently.

Customize your environment
04

Save reusable workflow templates

Workflows can be made into application templates, enabling applications and workflows to be used by anyone.

Save reusable workflow templates
05

Run, share, and reuse

Fuzzball workflows are modular and portable. Run them on any Fuzzball cluster, chain outputs as inputs to the next workflow, and share templates across your team.

Run, share, and reuse
USE CASES

Orchestrate any workload, on any infrastructure.

HPCAI

Unify HPC and AI on one platform

Run simulations and model training on the same cluster from one control plane. No fragmented GPU pools, no separate tools, no duplicate infrastructure.
HPCAI

Burst to cloud when demand spikes

Keep steady-state workloads on-premises and route peak demand to any major cloud automatically, with no change to the job.
HPC

Modernize HPC without rebuilding it

Onboarding drops from weeks to days and cluster utilization climbs, while administrators keep every scheduler, file system, and policy already in production.
AI

Deploy AI models on infrastructure you own

Train and serve models behind production-grade inference endpoints, with data resident in your environment for the full lifecycle.
HPC

Accelerate scientific computing at scale

A browser interface puts high-performance compute in reach of every researcher, so more of the team gets results and fewer jobs wait on specialists.
AI

Meet sovereignty and compliance requirements

Every action is logged and auditable across every environment, which makes regulated workloads straightforward to certify.
WORKS WITH YOUR STACK

Integrate with the tools your team already runs

Works with your applications

Pre-built templates and integrations get common workloads running immediately on familiar tools.

Works with your pipelines

Submit and manage jobs programmatically from existing CI/CD tooling, all the way through to production.

Works with your infrastructure

PBS Professional, Slurm, AWS, S3, Docker, Apptainer, Nextflow, and more. No custom drivers required.

What's new in Fuzzball

A complete self-contained stack

Native storage integration, a built-in object cache, and an integrated container registry are now bundled in, so there are no external services to stand up before work begins.

Multi-cloud deployment

Deploy across AWS, Google Cloud, Oracle Cloud, CoreWeave, and Azure from one control plane.

Production AI inference

Train a model and serve it as a live inference endpoint from a single workflow definition.

PBS and Slurm integration

Fuzzball now layers onto existing PBS and Slurm schedulers, so teams gain a unified platform without disrupting the infrastructure they already manage.
